“Using examples, explain the threats facing culture and environment in extreme environments” (8 marks)

In the Australian outback where Aborigines live, tourism can cause cultural dilution. This is where the culture becomes weaker, and history can be forgotten. Also, important sites like Uluru can be treated disrespectfully by tourists, and cave paintings can be damaged. Mining can also damage the landscape where they live. Climate change can threaten the environment because Australia will have more drought, causing desertification

In the Polar Regions, like in Alaska, where the Inuit people live, their culture can be diluted by tourism. Also, oil spills (like in 1989) can threaten the environment. Lastly, climate change will cause sea temperatures to rise which will melt more sea ice in the Arctic, making it harder for Inuit to fish.
